On April 20, 2013, volunteers cleaning the shoreline near the 6900 block of North Morgan Road by Lake Overholser discovered the body of 22-year-old Karen Natalia Cid-DeLeon, a Hispanic woman from the Oklahoma City area. Her mother had reported her missing on April 6 after Karen failed to return home; investigators later treated the death as a homicide though early reports said the exact cause of death was not immediately clear.

By late April the Oklahoma City Police had officially listed the case among the city’s homicides for 2013 and said they had no suspects. In July 2013 prosecutors announced that 29-year-old Juan Carlos Garcia had been arrested in Webb County, Texas, in connection with Karen’s death, and officials sought his extradition to Oklahoma. Reports from the time do not clearly detail any final legal outcome.

If anyone knew Karen, saw her after April 6, 2013, or remembers unusual activity near Lake Overholser that spring, please share what you know with investigators.
